With RH9 I had PHP working just fine with mysql4.1 using the new passwords - hence, all of my users have new passwords stored.

After upgrading to CentOS I recompiled apache to include another aspell as it was requested by a user. Now I am having the famous "mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client" error.

I have recompiled apache/php with easyapache more times than I can count trying different options. Use System mysql checked/unchecked, ran /scripts/mysqlup --force to refresh all of that stuff, still no luck.

It's simply not feasable for me to use old passwords at this point as that would require all my users to go back and reset their passwords - a nightmare I'm not willing to go through.

Anyone have any ideas? I am waiting for a reply from EZSM at the moment but want to see if anyone has any suggestions in the meantime.

This is NOT Cpanel problem and you should have searched MySQL Web site before posting this question. It is common to experience such problem when upgrading MySQL to v4.1. The solution is posted on MySQL Web site: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/old-client.html

A manual compile of PHP 4.3.11 did solve the problem, and now the new MySQL 4.1.x libs are working.

Does anyone know how to fix the buildapache script so that it will use the MySQL 4.1.x libs instead of the PHP built-in ones? The "Use System MySQL" link is just not working.

This is a fairly serious problem.

Nope, leave it like this, we have to wait until cpanel guys fix damn thing, i posted yesterday link to old easyapache from my box and howto manual install, but, today this post is missing, do not know why moderator did it, but ok, if you think that this is safe, ok. I am allmost sure that i checked, and post was there, it was late, an i am not 120% sure, but i am now sure that post does not exist. I know that you cpanel guys do not work on weekends, but we have to work.
